According to this article there is a need for used bagpipes in Horsham, Australia…

SECOND-HAND bagpipes are proving elusive in Horsham’s namesake in Australia.

News from ‘down under’ is that Horsham City Pipe Band has plenty of willing learner pipers, but the instruments are proving elusive…

…However, there used to be far more pipe bands in the area in the past, so hopes are that people have them packed away ready to be brought out and used once more.

It’s a shame that there are aspiring pipers that can’t get their hands on quality instruments and, a double shame that this has lead to a decrease in the number of pipe bands.

Here is the official Horsham site, you could maybe contact someone there if you have an old set of pipes gathering dust in the attic that could use a good home.

You knows I loves me some bagpipes and…you know I dig the comedy.

So, what could be better than a bagpiper/comedian?

As always, pipe down and click pause on the music player located in the side bar before playing the YouTube.

I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made object never equaled the purity of sound achieved by the pig. -Alfred Hitchcock
